Wesley has called the meeting to order and will be taking the minutes.

Jeff’s inspiration for RASL? Science fiction and noir. RASL came out of my love for these genres. Some of my favorite authors are Arthur C. Clarke, Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler. I also watch a lot of noir film classics like The Maltese Falcon and The Big Sleep.

Thank you to The Kansas City Public Library for this nice review of the BONE saga!
